O livro (ilustrado) informativo na produção editorial brasileira: uma análise dos livros premiados na categoria informativo do prêmio FNLIJ 2020 – produção 2019.

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to analyze the informative books addressed to children and young people who are part of the Brazilian editorial production of 2019 that were nominated for the FNLIJ 2020 Award in the Informational Book Category. This analysis is based on the studies of the informative book and the picturebook. It has as study object the two award-winning books in the forenamed literary category – Lá no meu quintal: o brincar de meninas e meninos de Norte a Sul and Reinações de Monteiro Lobato: uma biografia –, through which it is intended to demonstrate the main aspects and characteristics of the informative discourse and its playful, aesthetic and artistic resources. Furthermore, it is aimed to investigate the relations between text and image in these books, as well as the dialog with paratexts and design, which bring them closer to the picturebook editorial format. The results of the analysis of this set of informative books suggest that there is a trend of significant diversification of its editorial formats, almost all based on verbal-visuality and hybridization of genres.
